Reeder, Clerk of Knox County, testi- 1t he talked with Caleb Powers and nley frequently in regard to the crowd they were organizing to go to Frankfort on January 25. Witness asked Finley if there was going to be a fight at Frankfort. Finley replied that he thought so and that he would not be surprised if Goebel should be killed. |" Wharton Golden testified that in Janu- ary Caleb Powers told him that the kill- ing of Goebel was the only way to settle the contest: that several hundred men should be brought here from the moun- | tains, and that Taylor would pardon the man who did the shooting. He said he saw Ripley in the adjutant general's of- fice a few days preceding the assassina- tion. General Collier told Ripley he had no guns with which to equip the company | that Ripley had orsanized. Ripley said he would buy Winchesters if he could not get others. He saw Youtsey get the key | to the Secretary of State’s office on Janu- ary 26, The prosecution then rested. A motion for peremptory instructions for acquittal on the evidence presented by the commonwealth was overruled, and At- torney O'Neal then made the opening statement for the defense. He said that he was convinced his client was innocent; { that he did not even know Caieb Powers, | Finley or Youtsey. He barely knew Tay- llor and had only met him on two occa- sions just prior to the assassination, and the proof showed no link connecting him with the conspirators or with any part of the conspiracy. In explanation of the testimony of ex- Governor Bradley and Judge Yost, O'Neal said a mountain had been made of a mole hill. There was great excitement Frankfort on January 29, and when Rip- ley went into Governor Taylor's office he found the latfer nervous and wringing his hands. Hé asked what was the mat- ter, and Taylor sald: “Oh, my God, Ripley, these are terrible times. Goebel will be killed, I will be killed and there will be a riot here.’ Ripley told him he thought these things could be avoided, and inquired when he should get his company ready. To this Taylor said: y God, haven't you got them ready’| et “This was all there was to_this,” sald Attorney O’'Neal, “‘and no such construc- tion could rightfully be put on it as has been done in this trial.” O'Neal said both Governor Bradley and {Judge Yost were asked as to the point Ripley was endeavoring to make when he told of the conversation with Taylor in which he used the words, ‘“Goebel will be Killed.” ~ Ripley saw Youtsey passing about that time and recognized him as the man he had seen coming out of Tay- lor's office on January 29. Ripley related the whole eonversation, but a.tla,chedTl;:u e ¥ importance to Taylor's statement. court then adjourned until Monday. Sale of Placerville Bonds. PLACERVILLE, April 18.—One hundred bonds, aggregating more than $40,000, is- sued by the City Council to refund the 0ld ouistanding bonded indebtedness of the city of Placerville, were sold to-day. The entire issue went to local bidders at a fair premium. The Damage Faber & Co., the progressive grocers, of 119 Taylor street, whose storeroom, whele- sale and shipping departments were total- ly destroyed by fire some weeks ago, have eclipsed all records in rebuilding and are now re-established in better and larger quarters than ever. This improvement, re- sulting from what was at first regarded as a calamity, proves to be a distinct ad- vantage, for ‘the rapidly increasing busi- ness of the firm would soon have required in |, the enlargement of quarters equal to those Jjust complsted. IWVKES LW IGHINST A Mo Father of a Negro Who Was Burned Applies - for Warrants. s LEAVENWORTH, Kans., April 13.—Al- fred Alexander, father of Fred Alexander, the negro who was burned at the stake for thé alleged assault and murder of Carrie Forbes and for the assault on Miss Roth, has filed information with the County Attorney against a _ number of those participating_ in the burning and asks for a waTnt for their arrest on the charge of murder, Begare issuing the warrant the County Attorney decided to examine witnesses, under the law passed by the’last State Legislature. This examination is con- ducted in the rature of a star chamber affair and already ten or twelve witnesses have been examined. About twenty more witnesses are to be examined before the County Attorney decides whether he shall jssue the warrant or not. Both the County Attorney and Alexander refuse to give the names of the witnesses or the nature of the testimony or indicate the result of tl;‘((e in&lesflgatlon, which is to be continued Monday. The news of the investigation and the prospective issuing of a warrant is caus- ing great excitement in the city, especially among those who were clamorous for the punishment of Alexander. It was learned to-night that Alexander will ask for war- rants for Willlam Forbes, whom he ac~ cuses of setting fire to his son, one of the city officials 2nd a policeman, whom he charges assisted in piling the fuel around the stake and aiding in the burning. Pillar Falls at Westminster. LONDON, April 13.—Some alarm has been caused by the fall of an 18-foot pillar 4 in Westminster Abbey. The pillar stood in the side chapel northeast of the chan- cel. It fell with a tremendous crash, was shattered into small pieces and damaged the tomb of Lord Norreys. Investigation showed that a similar column in the same chapel was very unsafe. Steps have been taken to assure stability. e A INJURY TO BRIDEGROOM POSTPONES A WEDDING John Conniff of Napa Run Down by a Truck While in San Francisco. PETALUMA, April 13.—Just because the bridegroom had three ribs broken by be- ing run over by a truck, a society wed- ding dated to take place to-morrow in Napa has been called off., The principals are Miss Nellie Conniff of this city and John Conniff of Napa. / Everything was nicely arranged for the nuptials and a great party of friends had gathered at the groom’s home, among them the bride’s family from this city. Mr. Conniff, who is an attache in the State Asylum at Napa, took a vacation the first of the week to prepare for the wedding. He went to San Francisco on Friday, and while there was run down by a truck. The bridal chamber has been turned into an improvised hospital ward and the bride has taken up the occupation of nurse. A new date for the wedding will be named. Settled Out of Court. PETALUMA, April 13.—Dr. George Ivancovich to-day purchased the interest of the other heirs in the estate of the late Asa Higgins. The sale settles a contest which was-to have been brought against the filing of the will of deceased. Higgins at his death a few months ago left most of his $40,000 estate to his grandson-in- law, Brainerd Jones. To Dr. Ivancovich and J. H. Morrison he made small be- quests of landed property. Morrison, who is a brother-in-law, objected to his ;or- tion and threatened to bring a contest in their women folk, attacked the factory to-day and with drawn daggers forced the workers to cease their tasks.
